Foot care tips for the winter {DIY, Skin Care}

November 17, 2013 By: Pratibha6 Comments

My feet often bear the brunt of the changing seasons. The dry skin leads to the cracked heels that don’t look very nice! Just moisturising the feet is not a solution, you need to take proper care of your feet to not just keep it soft and clean, but also keep the cracked heels at […]

Prakriti Herbals Skin Care Kit {Product Review}

November 11, 2013 By: Pratibha3 Comments

Prakriti Herbals Skin Care Kit

I have already reviewed the Hair Care Kit by Prakriti Herbals earlier and I have been able to see a considerate reduction in the itchy scalp and dandruff. I received the Prakriti Herbals Skin Care Kit along with the hair kit, but I took time to review this because I had a lot of products […]

Skin care regime for Diwali {DIY, Skin Care}

November 1, 2013 By: Pratibha5 Comments

It is the time of festivities. I have been super busy with the marathon cleaning that is happening at home. I don’t know I collect so much nice to use stuff, that is just nice and never used! And trust me the cleaning is super exhausting and when that is combined with two hyperactive boys, […]

The Nature’s Co October Beauty Wish Box {Product Review}

October 29, 2013 By: Pratibha6 Comments

So far, it has been Vellvette that has been ruling the market with its beauty boxes, so when The Nature’s Co announced its own beauty box, I was a bit curious. After all, they could offer only their products and what could be the variety they would offer in one box. How many samples would […]

Organic Skin Care by Rustic Art {Product Review}

October 25, 2013 By: Pratibha17 Comments

A long overdue review! I received a Rustic Art hamper from the GrennGood store  for a competition that I had participated. It comprised of a face wash, body wash and the superb pre-shampoo deep conditioner.  For a very long time I have been hoping that Rustic Art launched more products. They do have a fab […]

Natural skin care and more with Coconut oil {Skin Care}

October 10, 2013 By: Pratibha25 Comments

All these years, I have always used coconut oil to massage my hair. A bit of methi seeds thrown in the oil and half a camphor was an excellent remedy to keep the migraines and dandruff at bay. And yes, I did know that it was also used in cooking. And if someone told me […]

Amazing Detox Drinks {Healthy Living}

October 7, 2013 By: Pratibha14 Comments

I lead a horribly sedentary life with my only exercise regime being the morning walk I indulge in.  I had experimented with loads of detox drinks in the summer, but the winter is something different. You need something warm to drink and the cooler versions don’t really work. Listed are two warm drinks that you […]

Auravedic Exfoliating Foot Oil {Product Review}

September 30, 2013 By: Pratibha7 Comments

Being on my toes constantly and running after my boys takes its toll on my feet. My feet are constantly aching and no matter what I did the cracked heels just began to make their presence felt. Aching feet can be handled when you dip them in warm water and foot soaks, but cracked heels! […]

September 21, 2013 By: Pratibha2 Comments

The Nature’s Co – Walnut-Mint Foot Scrub Review {Product Reviews}

September 19, 2013 By: Pratibha5 Comments

For those who know me and follow my blog are very well aware that I like to make my own scrubs. I don’t like to stock the scrubs, instead I make something that catches my fancy and make it enough for just about two uses or so. So then why am I reviewing a ready […]

Shopping Reviews – Ecotokri – the organic e-retail store {Brand Review}

September 16, 2013 By: Pratibha34 Comments

There is a sudden surge of online organic e-retail stores in India because people are getting more conscious about what is good and what is not. The change in the mindset has been slow, but one thing for sure is that the shift to making healthier choices is certain. A, a follower of my blog […]

Hair Care by Prakriti Herbals – Saturday Picks {Product Reviews}

September 14, 2013 By: Pratibha7 Comments

Getting the right hair care regime has always been a task. If I got the oil right, the shampoo did not work, if the shampoo worked, the conditioner left my hair too dry or the hair pack did not nourish the hair as much as it should have.  I have used products  from Prakriti Herbals […]

Shopping Reviews – MyGreenKart

September 12, 2013 By: Pratibha6 Comments

When you make the switch to organic and green living, one of the major tasks that you face is looking for stores that sell the required range of organic products. Till now the options available were very few. The past few months have seen a sudden spurt of eco-friendly organic stores opening, some survived and some did […]

Pre-Shampoo Deep Conditioner by Rustic Art {Product Review}

September 1, 2013 By: Pratibha29 Comments

I have been going through the phase where I have been searching for that one product that my hair will love. While I love the oils and shampoos I use for my hair, I was still looking that *something* which my hair would absolutely love. My prayers were answered post a wait. I received the […]

August 15, 2013 By: Pratibha20 Comments

R, another reader of my blog requested me to make a post on the things one needs to stock up for winter for skin care as well as hair care. (R, this one is for you! ). The winter has never been my best friend. I have enough skin and hair woes ranging from chapped lips, […]

Hibiscus Hair Conditioner – SoulTree

August 10, 2013 By: Pratibha32 Comments

One of my blog readers ( yes A, that is you! ) who is totally into natural and organic products as much as I am, always introduces me to products that I may have missed. In one such conversation, she mentioned the conditioner of SoulTree that she was using and raved about it.  I did […]

Sea Salt & Sugar Soap by The Nature’s Co

July 29, 2013 By: Pratibha4 Comments

For those who know me and my blog, are well aware of my love, passion and obsession with soaps. Yes, I have enough stock to last me at least two years, but I still end up buying more! A few weeks ago, I was at The Nature’s Co  shop and I picked up a few […]

The monsoon must-haves {Staying Healthy}

July 14, 2013 By: Pratibha12 Comments

With the monsoon settling in, I need to move away from the summer set of products to something that is very monsoon friendly. Right from the hair oil, shampoos, face and foot care to the diet I need to follow, everything changes!  I try and switch over to products that moisturise my skin very slightly. […]

Lemon Verbena Body Wash by Azafran

July 12, 2013 By: Pratibha29 Comments

I was introduced to Azafran with one of the life saving samples that came with the Enchantess Sampling Bag. The soap had an awesome fragrance and was really nice to use. A bit of search lead me to the entire range of products and I was lead to their range of body washes that I […]

Easy hand scrubs to make at home

July 10, 2013 By: Pratibha8 Comments

Especially after most of the scrubs available in the market gave me more or less the same results, I decided to start making my own hand scrubs. A little bit of search gave me the following info: Most ingredients are available at home Scrubs are easy to make. Promise! Experimenting with ingredients allows me to […]

Mud Aloe Shampoo by Nirvaaha

July 9, 2013 By: Pratibha25 Comments

Correction, it is actually a mud aloe shampoo and conditioner by Nirvaaha. This came to me with a very high recommendation and with the earlier products that I had used from Nirvaaha, I was pretty sure that this would not fail my expectations. I have used their ubtans, soaps hair packs and the shampoo till […]

Rosemary Mint Salts by Bath Etc

July 6, 2013 By: Pratibhacomment

I’ve said this before and I will say it again. I love bath salts that help you relax and get rid of the tiredness and the fatigue. And I love  bath salts more when hey double up as a foot soak that not only help relax those tired feet but also end up making them […]

Shopping with Jabong

June 29, 2013 By: Pratibha11 Comments

The man in a state of panic, requesting people not to introduce their family members to Jabong was the earliest advertisement that I recollect. From the past few months, it is fast moving on to be one of the preferred and trusted e-retail store to shop at. Jabong has been around for quite a while […]

My Vellvette Journey

June 27, 2013 By: Pratibha6 Comments

“I can’t believe that I endured you For as long as I did I’m happy, it’s over!” Yes, the lyrics from a popular song by The Corrs pretty much sums my experience with Vellvette. I fell for the trap and subscribed for 3 months and an optimism that luck would favour me and I would […]

Clarified Butter Lipsticks by Young

June 13, 2013 By: Pratibha22 Comments

This is my first ever review of a lipstick on the blog and I hope it won’t be the last one because I am sure that very soon more natural and organic lipsticks find their way on the shelves. When Megs mentioned that Young Lipsticks were now available at her store, I was happy! I […]

The Organic May 2013 Vellvette Box

June 3, 2013 By: Pratibha15 Comments

I was super thrilled that the theme for May was the Organic Vellvette box and I waited for it eagerly.  After gifting two Vellvette boxes because they sent stuff totally opposite to my questionnaire that was filled and getting an incomplete box the last month I was hoping that the box would be better. And […]

Organic Hand and Foot Care Lotion by Rustic Art

June 2, 2013 By: Pratibha7 Comments

When I discover something that is a combination, like a hand and a foot lotion, I pick it up because I know I need just one cream or lotion for the hands and feet! I’d been eyeing this product for quite a while but I never got around doing so because I wanted to first […]
